Disaronno Originale Amaretto - Iconic Italian Liqueur, Sweet and Fruity Character, Gluten Free, Made in Italy, Bottle of 50 cl, 28% ABV

Product Information

Disaronno is produced with only carefully selected ingredients such as the pure essence of 17 selected herbs and fruits soaked in apricot kernel oil. In 1600, Giovanni Reina rediscovered the innkeeper’s old recipe and began distilling the liqueur once again, with the secret recipe handed down through the generations. In the early 20th century, Domenico Reina opened a shop in Milan called “Domenico Reina Coloniali”, situated in the heart of Saronno. This was the first place that Disaronno Originale was produced and marketed, though the bottle couldn’t be further from the iconic square bottle we recognise today. That design didn’t arrive until 1942, and distinguished the drink from the rest of the market. It wasn’t until the 1960s that Disaronno was first exported to the rest of the world, predominantly the USA. Records the default button state of the corresponding category & the status of CCPA.

In 1525, the artist Bernardino Luini - a student of the Leonardo Da Vinci School of Art - was commissioned to paint a fresco of the Madonna in Saronno, Italy. Legend has it that Bernardino and his muse (a beautiful innkeeper) fell deeply in love - culminating in the young widow creating a sweet tasting liqueur in honour of her lover. This gift was the first bottle of Disaronno, its name derived from the phrase 'di Saronno' - meaning of, or from, Saronno. Disaronno captures the senses with its amber colour, rich aroma and incomparable taste which has made it the world's favourite Italian liqueur.It was Domenico Reina who created the Disaronno 'Originale' recipe, based on the innkeeper's elixir, towards the end of the 18th century. The secret blend of herbs and fruits, steeped in apricot kernel oil, used to create Disaronno has been a closely guarded Reina family secret ever since.

As well as its unmistakeable flavour of marzipan and honey - unchanged since 1525 - Disaronno is also known for its distinctively shaped bottle. Over the years the bottle has evolved into its current form with its unique square shape and bevelled, hand-crafted glass design now recognised as a modern classic. Disaronno is produced with only carefully selected ingredients such as the pure essence of 17 selected herbs and fruits soaked in apricot kernel oil. Disaronno is characterised by an unmistakable amber colour due to caramelised sugar: no additives are used - this has not changed since 1525.
